Theres hybrid and then theres dried up . . . merge resplendence in divergence as WIRE do and the music is never less than a donkey / carrot experience for my lurverly brain to follow like a lovesick puppy.
This new LP sounds like an amalgam of the various different styles of Wire, from over the past 30 odd years. Like 'Object 47', it's a departure from the harsh, industrial sound of 'Send' (albeit with the exception of 'Two Minutes').
Mostly, I find it redolent of their 80's sound, & with repeated listenings it's getting to be a bit of a grower.
Q: Gold or beans? A: Gold......but only 14 carat. ;-)
If you have the genius of Wire it's a really good plan to be influenced by yourself

People might say this is an inferior old-man rewrite of "I am the Fly," but we need a lot more songs like "I am the Fly" anyway.
